В данном исследовании рассматриваются стили руководства и динамика проектов в нефтехимической отрасли Казахстана, в частности, в контексте политики «Нұрлы жол» и китайской инициативы «Один пояс, один путь». Используя последовательный подход со смешанными методами и структуру «Макро-мезо-микро», в исследовании анализируется, как заинтересованные стороны преодолевали системные финансовые, технические и связанные с пандемией сбои, возникавшие на протяжении четырнадцатилетнего жизненного цикла проекта. В ходе исследования была проведена триангуляция данных, включая анализ документации, 12 интервью с заинтересованными сторонами и опрос 68 экспертов, который выявил «двусторонний» механизм управления. Результаты показывают, что неформальное управление отношениями и политическое лидерство были необходимы для компенсации ограничений, налагаемых официальными контрактами на проектирование и строительство. Кроме того, в исследовании подчеркивается важнейшая роль межкультурной коммуникации в выстраивании этих сложных партнерских отношений в существующих условиях. В конечном счете для успеха проекта требовалось согласовать операционную дисциплину с возможностью адаптации, предлагая новую основу для управления институциональными сложностями в странах с переходной экономикой и предоставляя практическую информацию для будущих проектов и инициатив по развитию международной инфраструктуры.

This study examines leadership styles and project dynamics within Kazakhstan’s petrochemical industry, specifically in the context of the “Nurly Zhol” policy and China’s “Belt and Road Initiative.” Using a sequential mixed-methods approach and a “Macro-Meso-Micro” framework, the research analyzes how stakeholders overcame systemic financial, technical, and pandemic-related disruptions encountered throughout the project’s fourteenyear lifecycle. The research adopts data triangulation, including documentary analysis, 12 stakeholder interviews, and a survey of 68 experts, which reveals a “dual-track” governance mechanism. Findings indicate that informal relational governance and political leadership were essential to compensating for limitations in formal engineering and construction contracts. Furthermore, the study highlights the critical role of cross-cultural communication in navigating these complex partnerships in the environment that exists. Ultimately, project success required aligning transactional discipline with facilitative adaptability, offering a new framework for managing institutional complexity in transitional economies and providing practical insights for future international infrastructure development projects and initiatives.
